I'm not a fan of the horror genre, but I am a fan of brilliant cinematography and film making. The director managed to give us horror in the most beautiful setting EVER... and he did it all without scary slimy monsters or a chainsaw. He focused purely on the human condition, and to be honest, it scared the hell out of me. It magnified everything we're all currently obsessing over ( frequent foreign travel, self awareness, spiritual awakenings,etc) and made it all dark. The scenes are prolonged purposely to deliver more anxiety and fear. This new age of horror directors are pushing buttons and pulling us outside of our warm cozy boxes. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

This is the worst movie I have ever seen. Please do not waste your money on this movie. Yes, it is thought provoking and the filming is good but such a bad script. How can a director make such a movie! The subject matter is interesting and yet the director chose to make such a terrible movie.

If you are familiar with Ari Aster and/or have heard the hype around Hereditary, then you should be prepared for this film. It’s strange and thought provoking (which makes some people mad I don’t know why) also makes you feel incredibly uncomfortable which is what I love about it. Personally im so de-sensitized by jump scares and ghost stories and haunted dolls that when a film like this comes along that takes you off the beaten path and truly disturbed me I beg for more.

This is a very disturbing movie. Not really a horror film as the term is normally used, it's more just about horrible people doing horrible things. If you think watching the Holocaust would make a good horror film, this one's for you.
